Hollywood's TV stars had plenty to say in their speeches at the 2013 Emmy awards on Sunday night - here's a list of the best quotes from the ceremony:

"You really deserve half of this. Do you want the bottom or the top?" -- Michael Douglas, winner of Best Actor in a mini-series or movie for the Liberace biopic Behind the Candelabra, to co-star Matt Damon, who played his lover.

“The men are much more beautiful than when I was doing television.” -- Seventy-eight year old Diahann Carroll, the first black actor to win an Emmy, commenting on her return to the Emmys show as an award presenter.
